I would rather be a super taster like Ruth Reichl than hear every baby cry within a mile radius.

Thoughts. I would just do pushups for those 30 seconds and all they would get is "Goddamn, my arms are weak" which is hardly a revelation.

They're trying to deport my colleague from the med school and holding her without counsel. She was coming back from a visit to her family. If there are ways to help I'll let you know. www.providencejournal.com/story/news/l...
She saw family in Lebanon. Now this Brown Medicine doctor is being held at Logan for deportation.
Dr. Rasha Alawieh flew into Logan Airport Thursday after visiting family in Lebanon. She's being detained now at Logan without legal counsel.

How language changes over time. Came across this gem in Agatha Christie's 'A Murder is Announced'. "‘Ye gods and little fishes,’ said Sir Henry, ‘can it be? George, it’s my own particular, one and only, four-starred pussy. The super pussy of all old pussies.'" He's talking about Miss Marple.

It's an interesting idea. Is "normalcy" that one good simple day where you do the little creative things that make you feel content? My normal/old-school is a day near water (beach, pond, or pool) with friends and beyond the compulsive call of technology.

Just a little note to be extra sensitive when posting images like this. Different people have different proximity to historical images of violence. Given this is a person who was dehumanized within their lifetime, extra care to present time with dignity is important. Their name, image source, etc.
